2020 Bond Program

Bond Program Schedule

In November 2020, North Richland Hills voters overwhelmingly approved $49,875,000 in bonds for street improvements. The bond program will allow the city to reconstruct 27 streets including portions of Glenview, Iron Horse, Bedford-Euless, Chapman, Lariat and others, and will not require an increase in the city’s property tax rate. The reconstruction projects will be phased in over the next 5 to 7 years. Our commitment to voters is to deliver high quality improvements in a timely manner and within budget. Please check back for periodic updates, as schedules are subject to change. Questions may be directed to Public Works at 817-427-6400 or by email.

Noreast Drive and North Hills Drive

On March 22, 2021, the City Council approved contracts with Apex Construction Inc and Texas Materials Group Inc, dba Texas Bit, for the reconstruction of 2 residential asphalt streets - Noreast Drive and North Hills Drive. Apex Construction was hired for the removal and replacement of designated portions of curb, gutter, drive approaches, and sidewalks (where present). Texas Bit will perform subgrade and asphalt work. This includes removal and replacement of the existing roadway pavement, treatment of the subgrade in accordance with geotechnical recommendations specific to each project site, and placement of new asphalt pavement. NRH Public Works will be replacing the existing water and sanitary sewer mains located beneath the roadway pavement prior to any paving work taking place. View City Council Meeting memorandums: Apex Construction, Texas Bit

North Hills Drive Update: After the replacement of underground utility lines, concrete curb and gutter rehabilitation, and stabilization of the subgrade, North Hills Drive was repaved with a new asphalt surface during the first week of September.

Noreast Drive Update: Underground utility improvements and concrete curb and gutter rehabilitation is complete. Crews will begin on Oct. 25 milling up the old asphalt surface. This will be followed by work to stabilize the roadway’s subgrade. After the subgrade work is complete, a new asphalt surface will be put in place. Noreast Drive will remain open to neighborhood traffic during this project. Door hangers about this project were recently distributed to homes on Noreast Drive. Motorists who do not live on Noreast Drive should consider taking an alternate route while the roadway is being reconstructed. Please slow down and watch for workers if you must travel in this area. 

Diamond Loch West Courts: NRH Public Works began underground water and sewer main replacements on October 4. We anticipate this utility work to take about 4 weeks to complete.
